Whoever convinces me they will most thoroughly and relentlessly execute a plan of retribution.
It should become an official office with it’s own staff. 
Damn good point. ANYONE who utters anything close to taking the “Moral High Road” or “We’re better than that” will be out as far as I’m concerned. It’s time for payback. 
I do not care if it “makes us no better than them”. I do not care if it “further divides the country”. Half this country can go f**k itself as far as I’m concerned.
Yep, those two phrases lead me to one conclusion: feckless
Spineless also comes to mind.
First, we go back to a War Department. Defense has always bothered me.
Then the Department of Retribution. Sec Flynn should have it up an running in no time.
Barr wasn’t wrong, if it was still the 90’s or early 00’s. Now his “we won’t do tit for tat” just makes him a boob. But to be fair many boomers can’t, or won’t, admit where we really are as a Country.
I wouldn’t mind seeing Barr investigated and raided for his sins too. That way they could say it was obviously bipartisan and therefore not about politics? 
Do you have a newsletter? If so I’d like to subscribe!
Yeah, and when you lose an election (fairly) disband said Dept of Retribution on January 19th of the year you leave office!
In all seriousness it’s hard to say if Trump or DeSantis would be better at actually getting stuff done.
No doubt DeSantis is pragmatic and gets stuff done. Probably the better choice for not having the negative yet. Anyone who thinks the media won’t gin up constant turmoil and call him hitler is nuts, it’s already started.
Trump is now almost guaranteed to break anything in the way of getting retribution. No need to worry about a re-election, it should be glorious. Remember that he was severely handicapped with the Russia hoax for at least half his first term. I expect zero shits given if he gets a second.
This is my fantasy. Trump go’s scorched earth for Four Solid Years. Then we get two terms of DeSantis.
If the libs steal another election. The US GETS EMP’ed and we truly get to build back better.
Just so everyone can be on the same page as far as where people stand.

Some of it is good, some of it I would prefer otherwise. Could probably live with him getting the nomination.
Views on guns:
Concealed carry statewide; open-carry on campuses. (Oct 2018)
Allow carrying guns openly and on college campuses. (Aug 2018)
Opposes restrictions on gun purchases. (Sep 2012)
Stuff I’m not wild about.
Voted YES for housing vouchers for recovering drug addicts. (Jun 2018)
Compels schools to have moment of silence for prayer. (Jun 2021)
Voted YES to ban DREAMer immigrants from military service. (Jun 2016)
Pro-Israel; take action against boycott. (Mar 2019) (my objection is with the latter, anyone should be allowed to boycott anyone).
I can live with the rest of his record, which actually makes him a pretty decent candidate. I usually find a dozen or so objections.
Starting even before he gave Mommy-Murderin’ Lon and his fellow triggerhappy psychopaths a free pass.
My rankings right now:
1st choice, DeSantis
2nd, Trump with reservations
3rd, ANYONE who will burn the Deep State bureaucracy to the motherf—ing ground with a zeal and thoroughness that would make Attila the Hun, Genghis Khan, and Scipio Africanus at Carthage call it “excessive”
Except that Trump would have to move because POTUS/VP can’t be from same state, the best way to plaay this would be the classic Good Cop Bad Cop, have DeSantis roleplay “voice of moderation and restraint” while Trump reenacts Cockburn & Ross 1814.
I would be happy with DeSantis but it would not as entertaining as Trump which is why I voted for him.
I genuinely hope Trump gets the Nom, wins and we see scores of Jonestown reenactments from Dems all over the country. Like numbers to rival the fake Rona counts.
Like Ace at AoSHQ says, I’m voting for revenge. My country is being burned to the ground and it’s too late to stop it, I’m voting for whoever will throw the arsonists to burn in their own flames first.
I will hold my nose and vote for Trump’s bombastic, annoying ass for the third time if he wins the primary (and actually decides to run of course). I have doubts about his ability to ignore swampy advice and appoint proper people willing to do the needful. He ran on “draining the swamp” in 2016 but by appointing swamp critters in key positions he hamstrung himself, not to mention a RINO Congress for the first 2 years. I don’t see it happening differently a second time. Not to mention he will be 78 if elected and 82 by the time his tour of duty is up. Time for some fresh, aggressive, take-no-prisoners blood.
He isn’t a conservative (small “c”) by any stretch of the imagination.
Trumps biggest problem is one of image and the fact that he is almost as polarizing as Hillary in 2016. He talked too much and did too little.
I can get on board with that.
His poor personnel choices as well as RINO Establishment obstruction (or dragging-of-feet if you will) in Congress certainly didn’t help. He paid lip service to gun rights but the vast majority of his proposed agenda I agreed with. He didn’t fully deliver, whatever the reasons. Of course I despise the Left so if he ran again I’d reluctantly vote for him.
